Mtrek is a multi-player real-time game you can play over 
the Internet which pits you against other players in 
unique ships loosely based on the Star Trek universe.  

The object of the game is simple: To gather as much gold 
as possible in your ship without falling prey to other 
ships or groups of ships.  

The entire game is ASCII based (sorry, no Quake-like 
graphics) but this enables users of even slower 
connections to logon and play with considerable speed. 
(Even those with 9600 modems shouldn't have too much 
trouble playing and surviving).

Documentation is located in the newsgroup alt.games.mtrek 
and many players are willing to help newer players get 
their feet wet and learn the basics of the game.  

The learning curve is a bit steep but can be fun just the 
same.

In your telnet connection, go to zeta.acast.nova.edu and 
enable the port number 1701.

Alternatively, from a shell account type this at your command prompt:
telnet zeta.acast.nova.edu 1701

Put in a ship name of your choosing (the name might already be
taken...choose another), and pick a ship class. Despite the nostalgia, a
Constitution class startship is a *really* bad ship for a beginner.

Good luck
